Abstract
The masses of ions of some keV can be determined in multi-pass time-of-flight mass analyzers [1,2] with high precision. The mass accuracies thus achieved are sufficient to determine the proton and neutron numbers for most short-lived and stable nuclei [3,5]. Recording α- or γ-radiation of the investigated nuclei in delayed coincidence to the ion arrival, one thus can perform nuclear spectroscopy of selected nuclei.
